Bancroft > Wade/McDermott. Don't like either of these spuds but I need a keeper
Inglis > Smith
Tye > Meredith

100k remaining in the bank, what a shame

 

[happy_eagle]

7 hurricanes in my side for the final round
Have not given Supercoach BBL much thought this season (too much luck to worry about it as a proper fantasy game) and ranked 1,600th. Will take that.

 

[Saints4ever]

Ok so atm I’ve traded in Smith something is telling me this is a massive mistake and he’s going to fail after producing 2 tons.
I just don’t want to risk not picking him and he dominates again.
Incoming first ball duck bowled Meredith.

 

[TheRednWhite]

Feels real nice that I'm making my final trades tonight

Yep, glad it finally wrap ups this week. Will finish with my highest ranking of any fantasy game I’ve played so far, but I believe SC BBL is way too based on luck and lottery. The AFL version at least has some strategy and research you can do behind it, like you can rely on trends and stats to make a choice on players

Definitely luck involved as there's too much discrepancy between players good and bad games but still think you'll find the same guys are up there year in year out so there's some formula to it.

As for trades this round, Wade is batting too low so going Crawley instead of him. Really learning me lesson from Hain/Peirson dominating last round....
David vc

I've traded in Meredith and Wade so far, I'm still tossing up between trading in Smith or McDermott, in the form he is in Smith will probably outscore McDermott even with him having two innings but he could get out cheaply and won't get a second crack at it like McDermott will if he gets out cheaply.

 

[Saints4ever]

Trades reversed bye bye smith. Guaranteed a ton now.
Going for broke and bringing in 3 hurricanes to go with my already 5. So that’s 8 double hurricanes what could possibly go wrong.

Anyone remember when D'Arcy Short was

Miss those days

 

[Atavistic]

I'm going to captain Smith and jinx him for the benefit of everyone who doesn't have him. My rank is 4600 so it doesn't matter what I do at this point.

 

[Aussie_boy]

No weather expert but seems like the rain should miss Bellerive.

I'm honestly surprised Smith is playing, dead rubber and pulled up sore. Would not put it past the great man to ton up again, he's a freak.

Weather doesn't look too bad atm. Some dark clouds over the mountain, but no rain here yet.

 

[toxic]

VC the big choice

Ellis - Safe
Meredith/Dooley - safe

David - Brave
Wade - really Brave based on batting order

Hail Mary - Jewell / McDermott/ Crawley

 

[TheRednWhite]

My canes are spuds, nobody is really worthy of a VC.
Might just go Meredith and hope for the best. Have got Smith (E).
Swapped Wade for McDermott, why not

 

[Aussie_boy]

Decided to go Meredith for 2 reasons.

1- weather, should at least get through the first innings
2- only 9.8% of top 1% have him C/VC, bit of a POD and need to make up points

 

[Plugger35]

Decided to trade in McDermott instead of Smith and trade Brown instead of Hardie who I can use as a loophole.

No doubt I will regret it after Smith scores another ton and McDermott gets out for a couple of single figure scores.

I was going to VC Wade but with him batting down the order I've decided to throw the VC on McDermott too so he is even more chance of failing.

 

[Plugger35]

Already regretting not picking Smith, he looks like he is on track for another ton.

 

[Saints4ever]

*note to self.
Steve Smith is well above this level.
Smacks self in the head

 

[NSWCROW]

NEVER AGAIN !!!!!!

 

[Saints4ever]

I have 8 out of 11 hurricanes. First wicket goes to my only non bowling pick lol

 

[Aussie_boy]

Piss off Smithy, you're too good

 

[TheRednWhite]

Well done Smith, got the ton and then out to VC Ellis.
I feel ashamed that I looped him instead of fielding him like he deserves. My back up was Brown so I would have literally taken 10 from Smith (E)

 

[Plugger35]

Thank god Smith got out before he smashed another ton.

He didn't look like getting out until he missed that full toss.

 

[Aussie_boy]

Now we rolling

Bar was bloody low after the Heats last DGR. If Meredith doesn't get 50 then I'll back my man Sutherland in one last time with the C
